Filter by:In this study, the investigators aim to compare the effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy with ultrasound-guided piriformis coticosteroid injection in treatment of PS.
The objective of the study was to determine the effects of sacroiliac joint thrust manipulation on pain, pain pressure threshold, piriformis length and straight leg raise, in chronic piriformis syndrome.
In this case-control study, 23 patients diagnosed as PS by diagnostic injection with ultrasound guidance were selected as the study group. 22 patients who were excluded from the diagnosis of PS and had anteroposterior (AP) direct radiographic imaging were evaluated as the control group. On the AP Pelvic graph, the femoral neck-shaft angle, the distances between predetermined bony landmarks were measured blindly without knowing the diagnosis, and the findings were compared statistically. This study aims to evaluate whether the anatomical structure of the pelvis predisposes to the etiopathogenesis of the piriformis syndrome.
The objective of our study is to compare the effects of Graston and manual myofascial release technique on pain, muscle length and functional status in patients with Piriformis syndrome.
Deep gluteal syndrome describes the presence of pain in the buttock caused from non-discogenic and extrapelvic entrapment of the sciatic nerve. The Graston Technique (GT) is a kind of manual therapy technique known as soft-tissue instrument-assisted mobilization. Instruments help to perform massage/scraping of the skin and miyofascia gently. The aim of this study is to investigate additive effect of GT applied to the lateral and posterior fascia to the exercise program in patients with deep gluteal syndrome on pain and disability.
Kinesio taping is a novel method which recently has emerged as a viable option to treat of various musculoskeletal and neuromuscular deficits. The application of tape to injured soft tissues and joints provides support and protection for these structures. Many different techniques are used for injury prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, proprioception and sport. Elastic adhesive tape may be used to unload Myofacial Trigger Points (MTrPs), A trigger point can be located in fascia, ligaments, muscles, and tendons; however, MTrPs are also found in skeletal muscles and/or their fascia. An MTrP is a hyperirritable spot, associated with a taut band of a skeletal muscle that is painful on compression or stretch, and that can give rise to a typical referred pain pattern as well as autonomic phenomena. The use of tape along muscle to unload affected soft tissue seems to be effective in the treatment of trigger points by inhibiting overactive muscle, changing the orientation of fascia and a proprioceptive effect. The purpose of study was to determine the efficacy of Kinesio taping application on trigger point of piriformis muscle.
